Paul E. Kovacs, senior counsel at Armstrong Teasdale, has been named as the “St. Louis Best Lawyers Legal Malpractice Lawyer of the Year” for 2011.
Kovacs concentrates his practice in litigation, primarily in the areas of construction, commercial and products liability. He has tried over 200 cases to a jury verdict and has been involved in some of the largest cases tried in the state of Missouri.
He received his J.D. from the University of Missouri School of Law in 1969 and his B.S. and A.A. from Monmouth University in 1964 and 1966 respectively.
After more than a quarter of a century in publication, Best Lawyers designates “Lawyers of the Year” in high-profile legal specialties in large legal communities. Only a single lawyer in each specialty in each community is honored as the “Lawyer of the Year.”
Best Lawyers compiles its lists of outstanding attorneys by conducting exhaustive peer-review surveys in which thousands of leading lawyers confidentially evaluate their professional peers. The current, 17th edition of The Best Lawyers in America (2011) is based on more than 3.1 million detailed evaluations of lawyers by other lawyers.
The lawyers being honored as “Lawyers of the Year” received particularly high ratings in our surveys by earning a high level of respect among their peers for their abilities, professionalism, and integrity.
